5 out of 5 stars Never Heard Anything Like This   October 20, 2008
C. W. Scott Rubel (Pasadena, CA)
When I heard a biography of Simon Barere on the radio, I couldn't believe how tickled I was to hear something that was truly new to me. Barere is a genius and this is the only piano-only album I have ever bought.


5 out of 5 stars The ceaseless torch of genius!   May 8, 2007
Hiram Gomez Pardo (Valencia, Venezuela)
2 out of 3 found this review helpful


Simon Barere's art piano playing has surmounted the barriers of the most praised adjectives. His fire, passion, demonica technique and sublime musicality became a legendary pianist.

If these recordings by themselves carve in relief his sumptuous and sheer pianism, I just can figure out how it must have been to have watched him in live sessions.

This set contains a true tour de force in what mercurial and wild phrasing and fingering concern. Barere is simply superb along every one of these performances.

By no reason you should miss this album. Go for it, because it's part of the history.
